Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Maurice B. Burg mainly investigates Biochemistry, Osmolyte, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Kidney. In most of his Biochemistry studies, his work intersects topics such as Renal medulla. His Osmolyte research incorporates elements of Betaine, Osmotic shock, Osmotic concentration, Cell biology and Regulation of gene expression.

The concepts of his Internal medicine study are interwoven with issues in Extracellular, Programmed cell death and Osmoregulation. The various areas that Maurice B. Burg examines in his Endocrinology study include Biophysics and Lumen. His research integrates issues of Membrane and Collagenase in his study of Kidney.

His most cited work include:

  • Preparation and study of fragments of single rabbit nephrons. (661 citations)
  • Cellular Response to Hyperosmotic Stresses (539 citations)
  • Renal medullary organic osmolytes (459 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Biochemistry, Cell biology, Internal medicine, Endocrinology and Molecular biology. Maurice B. Burg works mostly in the field of Biochemistry, limiting it down to topics relating to Kidney and, in certain cases, Cell culture. His Cell biology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Heat shock protein, Transcription factor and Gene expression.

As part of one scientific family, Maurice B. Burg deals mainly with the area of Internal medicine, narrowing it down to issues related to the Ouabain, and often Chromatography. His Molecular biology study also includes

  • DNA damage that intertwine with fields like DNA repair and Cell cycle checkpoint,
  • Hypertonic Stress most often made with reference to Apoptosis. His Osmolyte research includes elements of Betaine, Extracellular, Osmotic shock, Osmotic concentration and Osmoregulation.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Biochemistry (31.65%)
  • Cell biology (24.05%)
  • Internal medicine (24.05%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2006-2020)?

  • Transcription factor (17.72%)
  • Cell biology (24.05%)
  • Molecular biology (21.94%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Maurice B. Burg spends much of his time researching Transcription factor, Cell biology, Molecular biology, Phosphorylation and NFAT5. His Transcription factor research integrates issues from HEK 293 cells, Phosphatase, Nuclear localization sequence and Transcription. His research in Molecular biology intersects with topics in DNA, DNA damage, Gene, Gene knockdown and In vivo.

His Phosphorylation study is associated with Biochemistry. The study incorporates disciplines such as Identification and Function in addition to Biochemistry. His Osmolyte study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Trehalose, Biophysics and Intracellular.

Between 2006 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Cellular Response to Hyperosmotic Stresses (539 citations)
  • Intracellular Organic Osmolytes: Function and Regulation (401 citations)
  • Transcriptomes of major renal collecting duct cell types in mouse identified by single-cell RNA-seq. (107 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • Enzyme
  • DNA

Molecular biology, Transcription factor, Cell biology, Phosphorylation and Kinase are his primary areas of study. His Molecular biology study incorporates themes from Small interfering RNA and Transcription, Gene, DNA, DNA repair. His research investigates the connection between Transcription factor and topics such as p38 mitogen-activated protein kinases that intersect with issues in Rac GTP-Binding Proteins, Regulation of gene expression, RAC1, Transfection and Cancer research.

His study in Cell biology is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Osmotic concentration, Renal cortex, DNA damage and Immunoprecipitation. His work focuses on many connections between Osmotic concentration and other disciplines, such as Heat shock protein, that overlap with his field of interest in Osmolyte. The subject of his Intracellular research is within the realm of Biochemistry.
